"That's just a little bit?" I was stunned.

"What does it mean to be such a little bit?" Yingying asked back, "My father was a minister of the court and a second-rank official. His annual salary was only more than 1,000 taels of silver. That's good. The expense of nearly 3,000 taels a year is a small amount in your eyes? Remember, your current identity is Wu Tian. He has no half a tael of silver, and he is a civilian, and he has no job for the time being. Why do you earn 3,000 taels of silver a year? Do you want to cheat again?"

I uttered a whistle. Pingyuli had seen a few million taels and tens of millions of taels of silver. I really didn't care about it when I saw that only a few thousand taels of silver was so much. However, Yingying had just said a little more, but it was indeed a little more. I remember that I heard Zhang Huang say that one or two hundred taels of silver could make an ordinary family feel comfortable for a year.

"Take all the money you have and valuable things on you." Yingying said lightly: "It's not that I'm trying to make things difficult for you. However, as a man, you must make money to support your family, so that you can have feelings for your family and not abandon this family in the most difficult times. In addition, there are a few small restrictions that you can't rob, steal, blackmail, or bet."

"Okay." I smiled casually: "I accept your challenge and I promise not to cheat." As I said that, I took out all the silver notes in my arms, valuable accessories, etc. Anyway, the things that the court should arrange have been arranged. It just so happened that I was very free during this period, so it would be okay to try Yingying's game.

Yingying whispered, saying indifferently: "The silver bill is 1.4 million taels, a Han jade finger, an ancient jade pendant, and a folding fan." Yingying said, took a small box, put it in it, and then locked it and said: "This small box is specially made by me and no one can touch it. If anyone touches it accidentally, don't blame me if he dies."

Tao Zhong, the housekeeper, looked straight, and he knew that I was rich. But he didn't expect that I was so rich that I could only take out more than one million taels of silver. The price of the finger and jade pendant was unknown, but Tang Yin's folding fan was probably worth hundreds of thousands of taels. However, he didn't dare to take it a little while. He also knew that people like me could never afford to offend people. Those people told him when they came, and if there was any mistake, they would destroy his whole family.

"Butler Tao, how much money is left in the mansion now?" Yingying asked in a faint voice.

After thinking about it, Tao Zhongwei immediately replied respectfully: "If you say goodbye to the young lady, if you pay 180 taels, you may have to last for one month."

Yingying then said to me again, "Your husband, you heard that if you can't make 180 taels in a month, the Tao family will drink the northwest wind next month. Remember, if you cheat, Yingying will leave immediately with Wei'er and never come back. Yingying doesn't want Wei'er to have an irresponsible father. It's still early, so my husband might find some ways to make money. There are still some personal things between Yingying and Sister Liang. I think that with my husband's character, I will naturally not eavesdrop. Butler Tao will pay ten taels of silver to my husband first. When a man is away, he can't have a penny."

Tao Zhong now admires this young lady very much. After only one or two hours, he imparted the young master's training and immediately transferred his loyalty to him. After hearing this, he immediately went to the accounting room to collect ten taels of silver and handed it over to me.

I weighed the ten taels of silver. Damn, I have never brought any silver to this day. I have always had silver notes. I never expected that the only ten taels of silver would be so heavy in my hand.

I don’t say much. After taking ten taels of silver and saying goodbye to my good daughter, I hurried to Xuanwu Street. I often come to this street, but I always come to be the old man to spend money. Now, I am here to find ways to make money.

Xuanwu Street is always the busiest street in the capital. Not only are there many big shops, but there are all grocers in various street stalls and grocers, but they are also full of energy and shouting one after another with their voices.

I was passing by a jade shop, and there was a recruitment notice posted outside. When I got up, I saw that it was a recruiter. Anyway, I was just wandering around, so I walked in with a shaking step.

The man hurriedly came up and said respectfully: "You are here, please, this shop has all kinds of jade. From the Zhou Kingdom to the nearest Wude, all the masterpieces of famous masters are sitting in this shop. This guy is wearing a top-quality Tianluo shirt and is majestic. He looks like a wealthy family, and he may not look down on jade. We have the finest products made by Master Li, a famous jade master of the Li Dynasty, who is famous for his dynasty. Do you want to see it?"

Seeing that the other person had said so much in one breath, it was hard to refuse, so he nodded and agreed: "Take it out and take a look."

"Master, you are joking." The man said with a smile: "This treasure of Master Li is worth no less than a thousand gold. It is not something that a villain can take out. Otherwise, please invite him inside, and the villain will go and call the boss out now."

I nodded. The man led me into the inner room, made tea affectionately, and after a few naggings, he hurried to invite the boss.

After waiting for a while, I picked up the tea, took a sip, then vomited it out, frowned and said, "What kind of tea is this?" I am used to drinking tea offerings, but this kind of ordinary tea can no longer be imported.

"Oh, don't be angry, little monkey, why don't you go and change the fresh Tieguanyin of this year for the guests." A middle-aged man in bright clothes walked in outside the door and said with a smile: "That little monkey has no idea about Mount Tai, and he actually treats distinguished guests with such inferior tea. It's really damn, damn."

"Your home is polite." I said lightly: "No need to be polite. I was just interested in Master Li's work and came in to take a look."

"You guys go and get it now. Please wait a moment." The boss was still smiling and did not take it. After a while, the little monkey brought a can of tea and brewed it for me quickly.

Seeing that he was acting quickly, he didn't know how to make it. How could he brew this kind of good tea directly? Besides, the water used was the pot of water just now. The water used was also very particular about making tea.

I couldn't help but frown and shook my head gently. But when I saw this action, I suddenly looked respectful again.

I picked up the tea, took a sip, and frowned and said, "What is this Tieguanyin before the rain? Third-class grade, no, third-class grade can't be considered."

The boss hurriedly repaid and smiled, "My father, this tea is already the best tea in the small shop. If you are always careful, you will get Master Li's Lantian jade carvings for you."

The owner hurried out, and after a while, he finally got a brocade box. He opened the box carefully and took out a crystal clear horse sculpture.

I picked it up and looked carefully. It was indeed produced by Master Li of the Li Dynasty. My years of imperial career have greatly improved my tastes. In my bedroom, there is an eight-horse worship dragon sculpture carved by Master Li using the best Lantian jade.

Unfortunately, this horse sculpture is lifelike. It is just a work of master Li before he became famous and is not worth it. The one in front of my bed is worth more than 300,000 taels of silver, which is the pinnacle of Master Li.

"My deck, how do you think of this Lantian jade horse eagle?" The boss said with a smile with a cautious look.

I withdrew my gaze and said in a low voice: "It's not very good either."

The boss's face changed quickly and said, "Yetai, do you mean that this horse eagle is a fake?"

"The fake is not a fake." I said lightly: "It's just that this was Li Yun's early practice, and it was not the best Lantian jade. I'm afraid it's not worth it."

"It's better if it's not a fake." The boss breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "This master is so knowledgeable. If you like it, you will be sold by the small shop. Eight thousand taels of silver. What do you think of me?"

"The price of eight thousand taels of silver is fair." I laughed and said, "But now, I am not buying horse eagles."

"My deck, do you have anything else to do?" the boss asked carefully.

"Authentic, I came in to take a look when I saw the notice of the shopkeeper recruiting outside the store." I nodded and said.

The boss hurriedly took the horse eagle back from me, and said with a cold face: "So, are you here to apply for a shopkeeper?"

"Just take a look. How much does your shopkeeper cost per month?" I replied.

The boss looked very bad, but he still held back: "It was originally ten taels of silver per month, but you know a lot, so I can make an exception to add two taels. The monthly rate is twelve taels, which is already very expensive in the entire capital."

"How is this enough? It costs at least one hundred and eighty taels." I blurted out.

"One Hundred and Eighty Taw?" The boss was so angry that he could no longer bear it. He scolded: "This master, my temple is small, and I can't afford to support you, the big Buddha, so please." As he said that, he quickly wrapped the horse eagle and said coldly: "Little Monkey, let me see you off."

"Hmph." I waved my sleeves angrily and said, "The dog's eyes look down." When I left by myself, the voice of the boss scolding Xiaohouer came from behind: "You open your dog's eyes and see clearly. Is that man the man the master? What kind of person wearing a Tianluo shirt? Now the Tianluo shirt is everywhere on the street. I think his piece may be a fake one."

I was speechless. I didn't expect to make some money, it was really hard to find. The shopkeeper was already a high-salary career, but he was still only a few months. If it were the waiter, wouldn't it be even lower?

I continued to stroll along Xuanwu Street, looking for opportunities to make a fortune on the street. I also asked about it. The boss of the bun shop had a good business and they lined up to buy his buns. He only earned one or two taels of silver a day, and it was as arrogant as 20,000 to 50,000.
